When I had my last Defender I bought a sheet of chequer plate from Service metals at Cumbernauld  -The price wasn't too bad but it was hard going cutting it, and I couldn't bend anything.  Probably easier to buy one.  I found the easiest way was to cut it with a jig saw.

M&M 4x4 are very good, see 4 page advert in LRO  or get them online.
The only difference between men and boys, is of course the price of their toys !

Hi

My dad and I have bought numerous bits and pieces from Rebel 4x4.
We've found a great way of saving on post - - we go to Billing and collect.

cheers

Forgot to say that the chequer plate won't waterproof your engine!
